Come up the stairs; walk south to Market if you came on the east bound side; From 2nd and Market walk east toward the Delaware river to Letitia Street and turn right (south) at the Franklin Fountain to mid block, just before Black Horse Alley. Come up the stairs and through the glass doors to the Lobby where the concierge will direct you to 104 -5. 

The Regional Rail lines all connect to the Market Frankfort Line at 30th Street Station, Suburban Station (15th Street) and Jefferson Station (11th Street.) From one of those stations connect with theEastbound MF line train.
